I've said this before and I'll say it again.... Tweaks, ROMs, kernels, and other hacks will make SOME difference in battery life, but not much.

Most people who say they get 20 hours and **** like that are NOT heavy users. Everyone *thinks* they are a heavy user. But to me, heavy use is turning the screen on and using the phone and not stopping for several hours, or at least not having the screen off for more than just a few minutes at a time.

I don't think it's possible to get more than 6 hours or so of actual use time out of an Evo on a stock battery, I don't care if you undervolt, underclock, whatever.

People get so worked up when someone gets 20 hours with "moderate use!" when in reality that moderate use was like 20 texts, an hour of web, and 20 minutes of a game. Then people who spend 6 or 8 hours a day using their phones spend hours and hours of their time trying to tweak everything under the sun to get 20 hours of life but it ain't happenin.

/rant
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
I wouldn't get too excited yet, just because there are WiMax drivers in the kernel doesn't mean WiMax will be working in the ROM.
[EVO 4G General] mdubs:
Right. But this is a good indication that it will be coming soon.

Stop trying to crush my dreams man! ;)

Sent from my EVO
[EVO 4G General] Holyrolla:
Were the builds purposely stopped?

Looks like a new build's on the way!
[EVO 4G General] bigant262:
Its official. :) https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/44de3a6710980ad5cbd19fff64a8691240d4e4a2
[EVO 4G General] cyanogen:
Upcoming build has the 2.6.37 kernel (thanks to Toast), and is now using Qualcomm's version of librpc which seems to correct the GPS issues that everyone is having. At least, it does for me.

Let me know how it goes.
[EVO 4G General] bigant262:
Thanks for all the hard work!
[EVO 4G General] jtc442:
wow

no fc's or anything so far, and holy crap, this sucker is snappy!!! everything is great!!
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
yes, this build works perfectly so far on my end as well.
[EVO 4G General] rdcrds:
are you running set cpu? i wonder if i should run it with this kernel
[EVO 4G General] bpqow:
The kernel won't allow me to go over 1.13 on newest nightly.
[EVO 4G General] rjacobs:
Gappsv2 is on the OP, called updated Gapps or something like that.

So far so good. Just re-installed all apps and am doing a reboot. Had 1 FC from LauncherPro, but thats it. Everything else is working well. Gonna run some benchmarks, then install SetCPU and see what we can do from there.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
I don't run set cpu or any kernels. I have no info, i just didn't want to ignore you :D
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
thnx for the heads up on the gapps....have it already...no worries...flashing latest build now..
[EVO 4G General] jtc442:
straight up

straight up rom here, no kernals yet, no setcpu, nothing. this is smooooooooth!!!!
[EVO 4G General] rdcrds:
I have setcpu running on it now seems to be fine.seems my signal is better as weather apps twidder and all load a heck of a lot faster.So i think ill leave the 5.0 kernel off and go with this stock kernel.
[EVO 4G General] bpqow:
Bluetooth is in DSP settings.
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
data in the power bar works but the flashlite still doesn't :(
[EVO 4G General] rjacobs:
Non-overclocked(setcpu not installed)

FPS2D: 52, 53, 53, 53, 52. Most stdev were in the 4.5ish range.

linpack=34.728, 34.931, 34.714, 35.269, 35.062

quadrant=1312, 1382, 1428, 1399, 1469, 1433

These are some of the best quadrant scores I have seen on my Evo. Even when OC'd on the older nightly's to 1.22 and on Snapv5.

Now on to install SetCPU and re-bench
[EVO 4G General] gerald410:
agreed 10 chars
[EVO 4G General] rjacobs:
SetCPU on 1113

FPS2D was 52 over 5 tests with stdev around 6.25

linpack 36.291, 38.106, 38.123, 38.089, 38.123, 38.141

quadrant 1583, 1539, 1580, 1364, 1444

Dont know why the last 2 were much lower. Maybe the processor was heating up to much.

So overclocking on this kernel doesnt do a ton for performance, at least not on my Evo. What does this mean? Is this kernel pretty efficienet to begin with and doesnt require any overclocking?
[EVO 4G General] xcopmanx2:
No O/C, set to performance:

FPS2D: avg=53, stdev=1.25, 1.10, 1.61, 0.80 (wtf? that is sick!) those were four consecutive runs.

Linpack: 30.341, 33.763, 33.641, 33.123

Quadrant: 1336, 1481, 1506, 1565

Anyone know what the latest version of gmail in google apps is? I im having some email sync issues I have 2.2. 1
[EVO 4G General] xcopmanx2:
2.2.1 is the newest. :/
[EVO 4G General] p-slim:
If you're having troubles syncing, go to settings, applications, manage applications, all, then gmail, clear cache and force stop, then soft reset
[EVO 4G General] mrkmrk:
Yowzah! fps2d at 52 with a stdev of 1.91! So smooth :).

Yeah, 36 got them. I was going to force it if not.
[EVO 4G General] BigRick10:
Hope all is well in your personal life. A lot of us really appreciate the work you and team douche put out! You are the effin man!! Ok now carry on.
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
I just wiped cache and dalvik
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
thanks for everything, cyanogen!

do your thing, sir.
[EVO 4G General] wrapkgb:
Wonderful work as always! I don't even think there needs to be a RC release after this build... just straight CM7 ;)
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
I definitely agree on the misinterpretation of people labeling themselves as heavy users. That's why I made the comment I made. I definitely consider myself as a heavy user because I'm constantly using my evo, whether I'm actually doing something or just deleting unnecessary files off the SD. I can honestly say if you can get 6-8 hours heavily using your phone that's good battery life and way better than stock. Heavy usage statistics could give me good insight on which kernels are good to use. Even though each phone is different you (MIGHT) get the same results. That's why well IMO, Idle time doesn't explain good detail battery information. All in all it helps though.

[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
Bugs for Nightly #32:

1) When the call setting and the dialer setting "Always return to call log" and "Return to dialer after call" are unchecked, the phone still returns to call log after starting a call and then hanging up.

This means that if you were to start a bluetooth call and hang up, the phone will end up at the call log. Then, if someone else tries to call you, and you miss the call, the call log screen automatically clears a missed call notification if the lockscreen is disabled.

2) Ringtone and notification sounds are sometimes randomly reset to defaults for no apparent reason.

3) The screen on animation sometimes crashes and locks up. After this, the OS keeps crashing and locking up even after multiple reboots. Clearing cache/dalvik fixes this problem.

4) After loading a nonmobile web page, there's a period of time (5-10s) where the browser is unresponsive or very laggy.

5) If connected to a wifi router managed by Network Magic software, the phone is never added to the Network Map. That means if you enable Network Lock through Network Magic, the phone is automatically disconnected and cannot reconnect, until Network Lock is disabled.
[EVO 4G General] anaglich:
Awesome commits tonight! Does Cyanogen posting here make this the official EVO CM7 Nightly thread?
[EVO 4G General] galt:
After every time I flash a new version of a ROM I lose music playlists that I had created and saved on the device through the music app. Is there anyway to restore these playlists? I have Titanium Backup backup everything, but I cant figure out what to restore to get my playlists back.
[EVO 4G General] MWSlim:
I still have my playlists, just checked after flashing #36
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:

[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:

Full wipe/delvic etc... flash 36 and enjoy...
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
I full wiped (Caulkulin's full wipe) and flashed #32 last night.

Are you saying that all these bugs were fixed in #36?
[EVO 4G General] galt:
weird. Were these playlists created on the phone it through a desktop app and transferred to the phone? I only have ones I had created on the desktop, the one device ones are gone.
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
Just wondering, but how come the CM kernels don't have underclocking to 128? Or overclocking to 1.26? I understand it might not be stable for some, but can't they be left in anyway so people can use them if it works for them? And if it's set to default to 245/998 in the defconfig, won't it be seamless to everyone except those who are specifically seeking it?
[EVO 4G General] Chronzy:
Thank you for fixing the GPS TeamDouche! It worked in 34; i'm currently flashing 36 and I assume it's still functional.

I recently started a new job about an hr away and finding other locals in the area, alternate routes to avoid traffic, etc. was a ***** without it. I no longer have to choose between 6.1.2 functionality and 7 freshness. :)
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
After messing with the new kernel..things were alright at first but started acting wierd..

*I'd suggest a full format because of the new kernel being implemented..

*screen on and off. Via power button sometimes sticks for me..leaves me at a black screen 70% of the time
[EVO 4G General] Sweetlittlehugs:
Is it possible to get the TV shows from my phone to the TV without HDMI?
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
It's being attempted/worked on as we speak..a couple devs have tried but phone gets ubber hot etc...
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
I use my phone as a phone, not a toy when at work. Its essential for being productive in any modicum of the word. I can't afford to pick up my phone and spend four hours undervolting and tweaking when I could spend the same four hours picking up the phone when I need it and doing my business, then going back to work. As of right now, my phone just hit 17% battery (I was expecting a bit more, but I accidentally spent 20% of the battery forgetting GPS on when a coworker looked up the nearest chipotle).

The close-by microwave oven was dropping 802.11 performance by 89.7%. Having anything less than perfect signal in the location would cause me to drop from the wifi network, also forcing the phone to carry out its duties on CDMA (WiMax not being an option in this city, and even then being unusable in this bunker). I spent a lunch break crafting a partially visible alum shielding and reducing its impact on the network by 60% (not bad for just slapping **** on while eating, if I do say so myself).

Yeah, the only thing worse than precluding a statement with "not to be an ass" is to blatantly insult someone and try and write it off. Grow up and realize that you aren't the only one with a fancy toy that matters.

My phone is constantly in use, just not constantly in use in the same way as you. Should I be forfeit from CM7 because my heavy usage of my phone doesn't meet your qualifications?

Yes, when I'm at home and have the luxury to free one or both hands for extended periods, I can and will use my phone damn near constantly (Seven hours passed by? WHEN?!?). Work comes first, unfortunately, and until things change, I am spending my time on-site doing work and handling business.
[EVO 4G General] sarahlegs:
Though it may be small consolation in tough times, know that there are multitudes of us out here that love what you do, love the team that you've built, and remain inspired by it. We're sometimes silent, but always grateful.

You, teamdouche + teamwin make people's lives better through your hard work. It's that simple, and that awesome.

running nightly build 12-10-11 with no issues.

I just have a question.

is it possible to remove the album art from the lockscreen ?

either remove it or change is x/y position. cause it stays below the rotary and its no good on that position.
[EVO 4G General] remorema:
my bad... 12-02-11

can someone help me out with the lockscreen album art?
[EVO 4G General] :
In CM6 the incognito part of the browser would erase all history on close. CM7 erases it as well except the fact that when you search again after closing the incognito the search results show the sites as a history item but it is not in the history.

Can anyone confirm that that is happening on there phone?
[EVO 4G General] SgtUSMC:
Has been happening for me since incognito was implemented
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Dude really! Next time use PM!!(private message)
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
nobody said it was going to be in this build relax its coming
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Yes and it makes incognito worthless.

Nevermind, I think the 4G widget was the problem lol.

Anyone have an ETA on when I can use Sense over HDMI?

Seriously though build 36 is sweet so far.

Heh! You funny man, Dr. Indy! ;)
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Back on topic.. are most of you guys just wiping dalvik/cache for the latest nightly? I saw Jamzersteak was having some wonkiness or something until he full wiped.
[EVO 4G General] elegantai:
I just wiped cache and dalvik, and it's all good in the hood.

btw, michael j fox! haHA! score!
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
Sense...CM7...really?!?! Can you clarify what you're asking??
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
You Relax. My comment was directed at the previous ones that all claimed Wimax was going to be in #36.
[EVO 4G General] atapia984:
Full wipe before flashing cm36 and all is good.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Excuse me sir, I would like to take your original g1 and make babies with it lol. Thanks for the hardwork.
[EVO 4G General] housry23:
I knew the future build thing was sarcasm, but did the guy really have to say that the mistake was a plague to the thread? Maybe he was being sarcastic with that part too, but I said what I said & if I was mistaken I apologize.

I just had a random reboot on build 36. My phone was sitting idle & I noticed the white Evo screen out of the corner of my eye. I haven't noticed any before this build, but then again I don't have my eye on my phone 24/7. I'll be watching today though & if it happens again I'll start investigating the cause. Have a great day everyone!

Swyped from CM7 from XDA app.
[EVO 4G General] :
has anyone experienced much faster download and upload speeds on 3g with the #36 nightly (which has the new .37 kernel included)? im in chicago right in the city and on various sense/cm roms i had been getting 200kbps/100kbps averages even with three bars and now i get 800kbps+/500kbps+ even with only one or two bars! not sure if this can be attributed to the new kernel/nightly, or if it's just a strange coincidence but keep up the good work!
[EVO 4G General] dp92180:
I'm not sure if it has been covered, but is there a way to add the battery percentage on the lock screen while using the pattern password?

sometimes when i launch the stock browser, it should have had enough time to load yet it does nothing. if i slide my finger along the screen like im scrolling, the browser appears and scrolls and then i seem to have no problems. i have had various times while using the browser when it seems to not want to pinch zoom and not want to scroll to parts of the page to the bottom or right side.
[EVO 4G General] Moose8106:
I have tried searching, but I still don't understand; how do I read the commit log? The reason I ask is because I saw this(modules/2.6.35.10-cyanogenmod/kernel/drivers/net/wimax/SQN/sequans_sdio.ko) under the Supersonic commit log and wanted to know what it meant. Are we getting Shinzul's code merged in soon?
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
I have a couple of cosmetic questions...

how can i change the text color on the lockscreen...say from white to black??

I'd like to be able to remove the clock in the notification bar...how can I accomplish that??

I remember those to be options with the CM6 series, was just hoping that they can make it into CM7
[EVO 4G General] ChrisDos:
Mine is rebooting about every hour or so. I'll try a different kernel and report back.
[EVO 4G General] nivron:
I did a full wipe and didn't even install google apps.

My phone stayed there without any interaction after it booted up. Got three random reboots over a couple of hours. Just an FYI.
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Happens to me on certain websites.
[EVO 4G General] blampars:
got a bunch of random reboots an hour ago, about 3 in a row. pulled the battery for a few minutes and so far so good again.
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
It sounds like you are getting more benefit from an upgrade to the infrastructure than to any specific kernel update. I know nearby to Chicago just got a 4G installation (actually, there are four locations, one just recently got activated near Detroit), so you might be seeing your local datahogs leaving 3G for 4G. Its a bit of a stretch to assume this is the only reason why, but it makes more sense than quadrupling your downstream and quintupling your upstream just because of a kernel bump.
[EVO 4G General] jerrygon:
I am getting the random reboots as well with 36.
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
not sure what happened but my phone was 100% unresponsive totally lagged out even on battery pull :(
[EVO 4G General] ChrisDos:
The Savage Zen kernel did not make a difference. It's still rebooting every hour or so.
[EVO 4G General] Chronzy:
I'm running 36 with the SavagedZen-0.0.5-BFS-SBC-WiMAX-GB-signed kernel. Over the last 4hrs i've had good battery life and no reboots with wifi on continuously.
[EVO 4G General] redditor01:
GPS still botched for me. Am I missing anything? It still works sometimes for a minute and then it becomes worthless again. What's you're experience?

i've uninstalled car home and it still keeps going into car home mode...what the heck is going on??
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Damn, the new build sounded So promising damn it. It seems there are alot of issue to be worked out still... but I'm not worried, they always nail it.
[EVO 4G General] Ska8erMush:
omg i had this issue once too! it was on the 27 build i think. it was crazy my phone wouldn't stop going into car home even after i would quit it. The phone would even wake itself back up and go into it for like an hour straight! It stopped though.

also i wiped everything and used the format all zip and installed 36. haven't had any reboots yet but android system is taking 62% of battery use and my battery is draining kinda quickly.
[EVO 4G General] SgtUSMC:
I've been running 36 for 6 hours now...no problems so far and good battery. 0004 hardware, GPS browsing data speeds all seem good.
[EVO 4G General] firsttimer44:
Problems I have had with build 36 so far:

Home and search buttons don't work (I don't know if there is something I need to do to fix that)

GPS is still very buggy

random reboots so much
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
I've encountered this as well..on an earlier cm7 build...no idea really...I deleted it via root explorer ..rebooted and it still would pop up in notifications..it subsides now on the newest build
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
:o. Rofl...jamzersteak....w.e. it is ..sounds eatable

*and yes due to the new kernel being implemented,for best results I'd do a full format
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Wow, really sorry... I won't lie.. I definitely had several too many drinks last night so I still feel like dung today. Cloudiness obviously shows up in my spelling =p

I know it's JamersterZak, I just totally borked it

**edit** I think I'm going to hold off on this build tho, lots of issues being reported.
[EVO 4G General] Sab3r One:
I flashed this last night and all seems to be working well. No full wipe, just a cache/dalvik wipe. GPS is fine, no random reboots, wifi has been on since I flashed it.
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
No worries my friend. It made me laugh..hung over spelling:jamersterzak;)

*Only hiccup for me is

Screen on /off..phone never awakens lol..its acting wasted..I have no animations on..period.. black screen for 5 to 30 sec.

Its the only issue I have and its the same issue on my vision..
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Wow I STILL got it wrong

JAMSTERZAK.. sunuva *bleep*

I may give'er a flash tonight and try it for myself.
[EVO 4G General] jamsterzak:
Lol no worries..its about cm ..not my handle.flash away..I'm digging it..but regardless I kinda

Like jamzersteak..all hail drinking!..

*my motto is: a hangover is gods way of saying "you kicked ass last night!"
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
+1 to this for me. I did my format all a couple of builds ago. Cache and dalvik only for this one. Haven't had any issues...FC on ADW Ex a couple of times and that's it
